Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute the raspberries with another fruit?
Yes, you can replace raspberries with blueberries, strawberries, or even chopped bananas, but keep in mind that each fruit may alter the flavor and moisture of the mug cake.
How do I ensure my mug cake rises properly?
Make sure to not overmix the batter after adding the flour, as this can lead to a dense texture. Additionally, using a microwave-safe mug that is not too large will help it rise effectively.
What can I use instead of lemon curd for topping?
If you don’t have lemon curd, you can use a lemon glaze, cream cheese frosting, or even a simple whipped cream mixed with a bit of lemon juice for a similar tangy flavor.
